Improvements 📈

Player Update

We've upgraded our video player with a refreshed design and smoother playback.

What's new:

• New look for the control bar, with helpful tooltips and keyboard shortcuts
• One unified settings menu for quality, speed, captions, and audio
• More caption customization — font, size, and color
• Thumbnail previews when hovering the seek bar
• Smoother, more reliable playback — especially for live streams
• Better screen-reader and keyboard accessibility

Restream Title Format Update (YouTube)

We've improved how restream titles are displayed.

What changed

• Scheduled broadcasts (in the "Before Start" state) now show as "Stream Title: Event Title", instead of only the event title.
• Added a "Use this title only" toggle on the YouTube restream page:
  • Enabled — YouTube shows only the text entered in the Title field.
  • Disabled (default) — YouTube shows both the stream title and the event title, combined as above.
